I am arranging pet rabies vaccinations in the UK and to take up a teaching position in Valencia.  I have looked at the Alicante airport map and can't find here I should collect them.  I had a bad experience in Gran Canaria where they lost my cat for 2 hours thinking Id bought her for breeding purposes !  So I am a bit concerned.

Can someone tell me where the collection point is at Alicante airport?  Can I hire a car and drop it off at Valencia airport or at a Valencia office?  I believe it takes about 2 hours to get to Valencia.  I've been there befire but on a coach trip.

I will have a suitcase, laptop and three crates Labrador and 2 cats.  Any ideas, advice?

You need to go to Cargo to collect your pets at Alicante airport. I brought my cat over in the summer and very wrongly assumed that I would collect him somewhere in arrivals...

Cargo is about 1 km from the main arrivals hall! If you have a car exit the airport and go back into the airport at the main roundabout. You go to the right, it's signposted cargo, arrivals/departures is to the left where most of the traffic is heading. It's past the control tower in a small industrial estate type setup!

Hope this helps, good luck!

Thank you I'll write it down.  I lost my beloved cat for 2 hours in Gran Canaria Airport on 12th Night Holiday.  I thought I was going to have a heart attack  !!!!!
